In gespaltenem Schild vorn in Silber ein roter Löwe, hinten in Gold ein blaubewehrter, blaubezungter roter Adler.
Origin/meaning
Geisingen received city rights in 1310 and the oldest seal dates from the same time. The seal shows two different shields, one with an eagle, the other with a lion. The lion is the symbol of the 13th century Lords of Geisingen, the eagle is derived from the arms of the Counts of Fürstenberg, who acquired the city in the late 13th century. Later seals combined the two elements in a single shield.
